Grilled-Steak Soft Tacos
The sweet, caramelized flavor of grilled corn makes an excellent addition to steak tacos. The arugula is an unexpected topping, or you can use shredded lettuce. Omit the pepper slices for delicate palates.

I also mixed everything together, but if I was doing this for company, I'd probably keep them separate, not just so folks can pick and choose but because the whole thing gets a bit goopey...especially after a day or two of being in the fridge. Actually, this really doesn't work that well for the single cook, although I dug the use of arugula...man, I do love me some arugula. Also, for the rub, I'd leave the garlic out of the dry spice mix altogether and just rub a couple of sliced garlic halves over the steak before adding the rub, otherwise the garlic messes up the texture of the rub pretty badly, and I'd only add 1 TBSP of coriander. Oh, and just a reminder to myself and everyone else: flank steak should be cooked on high heat. Don't let those coals burn down to medium or you could end up slow cooking your flank steak into a rubbery and overcooked waste of meat.

I had to use canned corn, so I grilled the steak inside in a grill pan, then dumped the corn into the grill pan after the steak was done. I'll try this again in the summer with fresh corn.
